Normal Febmix protects down to just below freezing, -2 from memory. If it's forecast to drop lower than that I simply wouldn't be rendering.

I don’t, just be sensible with what you’re putting on, keep an eye on temps through the day and night and also watch the forecast for rain if your doing any bucket coats, it helps to have a few scaffs up so you can bounce between maybe 3/4 jobs at once

On EWI work for the councils we did not start till September and the contract had to finish by April for the financial year. We rendered all through the winter months as the scaffolding would have a roof and debris netting on the sides.

Just about to start a nice big job. Wouldn’t choose to do it this time of year but it’s part of a refurb so I’ve not much choice. Will do what I can, if I have to top it in spring then so be it.
